Winter is a little slow on the news front as we wait for the animals to wake up, the roads to dry out and the fire season to begin, but at least the desk-bound months provide an opportunity to ponder the highlights and lowlights of past field seasons.
An unexpected highlight of last autumn was the fungi. None of us have any fungal expertise but we were dazzled by the colours and forms we found all over the Central Highlands.
We’ve put together a slide show of our favourite fungi (or more accurately, of our favourite fungal fruiting bodies). Thanks to Kate Parkins and Julio Nájera-Umaña for these fantastic photos.
We only know the name of one of these species – please let us know if you can help us name the rest.
